Early Aces for Moreda
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Andrew Lawton raised to 1,000 from under the gun and Marc Lavergne called from a few seats over. Anthony Moreda three-bet to 3,700 from the button and Anatoly Zlotnikov called from the small blind before Lawton took the opportunity to go to 14,500.
Lavergne got out of the way and Moreda shoved for a total of 53,700. That sent Zlotnikov into the muck and Lawton went into the tank before he slid out the rest of his chips. After all of that, action was heads up with Lawton at risk.
Andrew Lawton: Q♠Q♥
Anthony Moreda: A♣A♦
The board ran out 8♥3♥10♥4♦10♣ and it wasn't easy, but Moreda held on with aces to score a big early pot.
